According to Ayurvedic medicine spring time is kapha aggravating. In other words, this is the time of year when sinus congestion and puffiness can plague the best of us. Ginger strengthens the body’s ability to digest accumulated ama or toxicity. Sweet potatoes are light and yet also dense enough to add substance to your meal. The bitterness of kale is another kapha balancing food that helps remove puffiness and is great for weight loss.
